  "account": "Abdullah Al-Tuwaiyel, a professor of automotive and engine technology at Dammam Technical College, revealed that students are undergoing training on cutting-edge devices to prepare them for careers in artificial intelligence and predictive maintenance. The college's goal is to equip students with the skills necessary to operate AI systems without human intervention, thereby minimizing manufacturing errors.\n\nAl-Tuwaiyel emphasized that the emphasis is on preparing trainees for the job market by implementing predictive maintenance. This approach involves addressing potential issues before they occur, allowing students ample time to learn about artificial intelligence applications. He further explained that the college employs devices based on 3D engineering design and data processing, which play a crucial role in reducing manufacturing errors.\n\nThe training process enables trainees to identify potential issues beforehand, leading to reduced costs and improved safety measures. This initiative is in line with the efforts of relevant authorities in Saudi Arabia to align education and training with the demands of the labor market. Additionally, it aims to enhance the skills of trainees to internationally competitive levels across various fields.",
